Theseus Lyrics

Patrick Wolf Theseus

"What lies beneath the door?
What keeps you?
Explore!
Do you take the chance to defeat the source?
The gates are opening
The choice
The future
The future is yours!"

So now you've found all you
Were looking for
How you gonna find your way out
Of the maze? You hear those
Jealous hands

Those bitter men

Carve their meat before the table
Is laid

And they are hungry
they are hungry for you

They are hungry, they are hungry for you

With an appetite
Insatiable

They are hungry
They are hungry

For you

The warm thread of love
Leads you, to freedom
But once your hero's dead
Is done you leave her lying
Lone no parasol under slow
And solitary suns

And she is hungry
She is hungry for you
She is hungry for you
With an appetite
So generous
She is hungry

She is hungry
For you

Now

Why no surrender
To your lover?
Or to the dead ends of the maze?
With all your life yet to discover
A black sail billows
The sun
Hits your blade

And you are hungry
you are hungry for you
Only hungry
Only hungry for you

So take a look around
And a little more...
Who is this for?

And what is this for... your appetite
So dangerous?

Your appetite...
So dangerous...
